PEGGY鈥橲 COVE, N.S. 鈥 Visitors to one of Atlantic sa国际传媒鈥檚 most popular tourist sites say signs warning of treacherous waves and rocks should be more visible.

Most who have been to Peggy鈥檚 Cove know to stay away from the black rocks, which can be dangerous, particularly when waves are high.

But it appears not everyone is aware of the risks.

Karen Brunett, from Kingston, Ont., said she didn鈥檛 see the warning signs.

鈥淲e didn鈥檛 notice any signs or read any signs that told us about the black rocks or the dangers up here,鈥 said Brunett.

Yellow-and-red signs are posted at the edge of the parking lot with the warning: 鈥淒ANGER: Sudden high waves. Drowning hazard. Keep off black rocks.鈥

Michelle Nichols, a Texas resident who has visited Peggy鈥檚 Cove three times, says existing signs on the way to the lighthouse should be moved closer to the rocks and the lighthouse.
